Hidden Truth of the Golden Rule

This is Matti and I'm looking at, 'the Golden Rule'. The Golden Rule is defined as, 'a basic principle that should be followed to ensure success in general or in a particular activity', but often used to describe the Biblical rule of 'Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You'. And, what's interesting about this, is that it's called - 'the GOLDEN rule' -- why is it the 'GOLDEN' rule? What is Gold? Gold is a yellow, 'precious metal', it comes from the Earth. 'Golden', defined as, in addition to it being a metal, something 'rare and precious', 'rich and smooth', also denoting the fiftieth year of something.
So, 'rare' and 'precious', and also a metal. So what does this have to do with 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you?', as 'the golden rule'?

This language, that we've accepted, and that which we've been using for generations of time, is very deceptive. Because we've accepted that 'gold' somehow is 'of value', and is 'precious' in some way -- so much so, that 'gold' is used to describe 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'. Which seems to say that 'gold' is - what would benefit from applying 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' Why isn't it the 'Rule of Life?', why isn't it called the 'Rule of Life?' Why isn't it called the 'Common Sense Rule', why isn't it called the 'Human Rule' The 'Life Rule' - why is it called the 'Golden Rule?' I mean it's placing, this is very deceptive cause what is it doing - it's placing Gold above Life! It's placing Gold as that which is the 'center' of life, apparently. Which, then actually, when you look at it, Gold is valued in this world, above Life. Money way, you know you have the whole 'Gold Standard', where people now are constantly talking about 'let's get money back on the gold standard, the gold standard, the gold standard!' Because it's 'more stable' - perceiving that Gold has some type of value. That's ridiculous. It's just a piece of metal, from the Earth -- that's it. I mean if you believe it to be something more than that, you are delusional.

And I mean you really would have to have been brainwashed to believe that Gold has 'value'. And obviously brainwashed by someone who would want you to see Gold as having value and not see Life as having value. Why? So that you will, obviously accept the current system, wherein the 'value system' is defined not according to Life having value, but according to things like Gold having value. Because then, when that is that which has value, when Gold has value, when Money itself has value, separate from Life, what it is--the way it has become in this world is that Money is something that you can--and Gold--is something of such great value that you can take----and since it's not, you know, since it's like an object that you have to go and get out of the Earth, and refine through various procedures, and then you keep it in your possession, where you 'have it', and someone else 'doesn't have it', and if that Gold is that which has value -- then you have 'power', when you 'possess Gold'. It's the same with Money, when you possess Money, then you have 'power', whereas, someone who does not possess Money, does not have 'power' that you have, who 'possess Money'.

So, obviously you would need everyone to accept such a way of life -- why? Who would want you to accept such a ridiculous system where, you have a 'resource' that, you - I mean, you're creating 'scarcity' within such an accepted value system, because then, when you look at the economic systems in this World, stuff like your basic survival needs is set up to only be accessible to you if you're able to have and possess Money, or have and possess Gold which you can then sell for Money. So, you have to 'possess a scarce resource' in order to purchase your basic survival needs. Money itself exists as scarcity. It exists with the creation of scarcity. So, again, who would benefit from such a system? Because obviously those who can't get the money don't benefit from such a system. The people that benefit from such a system, are those who have all the money. Because they have then all the 'power'. So simple.

So, let's take it back to the 'Golden Rule', because it's really quite ridiculous when you look at the system I've just described, which obviously is then able to be easily abused, I mean, if you can come up with some way to get more money than another person through crime, through abusing others, enslaving them, exploiting them so that you-- because as long as you can get that money then you have that power, you can abuse the system, you can abuse the resource of money, and then you have 'have more than other beings', at the expense of them.

When you look at the ridiculousness and unacceptableness of such an accepted system in relation to 'the Golden Rule', I mean, Gold as the Symbol of that abusive system, used to describe 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you', obviously, completely, casts a Veil over this advice, this suggestion of 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'. So that Human Beings aren't seeing what that's actually suggesting. Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You, means to treat each other in Equality, to Value each other as our Equal, as One with Ourselves, and to Give to Another, to Do Unto Another, as I would like another to do unto me. I mean as, someone without money in this World whose experiencing starvation, if you place yourself in their position, you would like everyone else to-- you would like to be supported! I mean, you would not like to give starvation unto another, so why has starvation been given unto you? I mean it's only existing because you're not able to get Money. So, those who are Accepting and Participating in, and perpetuating the current Money System, and Value System, are literally Giving starvation unto another - which is Abuse. That's not considering Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You.

Now, the Equal Money System, is based on Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You. And, this is not the 'Golden Rule', this is the 'Common Sense Rule', this is the 'Life Rule', this is the 'Honoring Life', this is the 'Equality Rule' -- that's what it should be called, it should be called the Equality Rule, not the Golden Rule. Because, that's then saying 'Gold will Rule', 'Gold makes the Rules'. It should be called the 'Life Rule', so that whoever is Life makes the Rules, and the Rules should be based on what supports Life, not what supports a system where Gold is that which has value, so that some can benefit from enslaving the rest.

The Equal Money System is not based on 'Money' having value, or 'Gold' having value, it's based on Valuing Life. Honoring that which is Best for All, and redefining Money, as a means to ensure that All are Given, I mean what we would like for Ourselves! Where All Equally Have a Dignified Life, a Dignified, Comfortable Existence, where None are enslaved, where None are 'at the top' with 'all the power', through abusing a system of inequality that is currently accepted and implemented throughout the World.

So, the argument about whether we should go back onto the 'Gold Standard', is obviously---the 'Gold Standard' is not the solution. Because it's based on the acceptance of, the 'Golden Rule' as 'Gold is that which has value', and then the Rules are based on that. No, that's not the solution. The Solution is the change the Rules, so that the Rules are made around what's Best for All as Life. Because then we have a system where none are left out. The Equal Money System is such a system, it is the Solution, and it is in fact based on Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You. If you are interested in, in Fact Living this 'advice', this Common Sense Principle,' join Equal Money, at EqualMoney.org, and research the Equal Money System, and also join Desteni I Process where we are developing Common Sense, and Self Honesty, to be able to see through the Veil, cast, and woven, in gold, by those who would benefit from our accepted enslavement.
Stop being a slave. Learn to see through the Veil, and learn to See Life, learn to Stand Up and Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You.

One of the primary functions of Self Honesty is checking what you are
experiencing in yourself as you are placing words in Reality - whether spoken or written - to determine whether you are possessed by a compulsion like spite, blame,
reactions, judgments, righteousness, ego --- so you can then stop and take self responsibility to place a guard in front of your mouth and work on yourself until you are able to place Words in Awareness without creating unnecessary consequences for
yourself and others.
The concept of 'putting a guard in front of your mouth' originates from the Bible, as I understand it. Some years ago I heard this concept placed in the context of what these words would imply in relation to Self Responsibility. I think it was Bernard Poolman who first placed it in such context.

I placed the 'Guard' principle in my own words according to how I've experienced and applied this point of Self Honesty and Self Responsibility for myself in relation to the…

Why do we as people tend to react to problems where 'standing up' for something gets turned into a conflict, fight, finger pointing, spitefulness, and even violence?

I've found that when I react to a problem it's because I don't yet fully see and understand the true nature of the problem or the solution - but I've latched onto what I believe the ONLY solution is to what I believe is the ONLY problem - and then when others don't comply with 'my solution' - I feel powerless because I'm unable to implement what I believe is the ONLY solution to the ONLY problem.

So what I find effective in relation to such situations where I recognize this kind of reaction is happening in me, is to remind myself - hey, there's simply more to this problem, and to the solution, than I believe or perceive there is. How can I assist and support myself to better understand more dimensions of this problem? How can I assist and support myself to become more Equal to …

The key here in terms of the word Equality, is that I realized that I was wanting my partner to do things the way I do things, because 'since it worked for me, then it will work for you'. But within this what I did not take into account is that hey - my partner is NOT ME. My partner is DIFFERENT! They are a different person, with a different background, different mind, different temperament, different expression, different skills, different strengths and weaknesses, and they have a different relationship with themselves which - I do not fully see and understand.
I realized that I was wanting my partner to 'be equal to me' -- instead of learning to live as an equal with my partner, accepting that they are different, and that what works for me might not work for them at all, and that I need to take responsibility to be patient and get to know my partner better as a being -- and that to do this, I can't …

About Me

My name is Matti Freeman and I am an artist, musician and researcher. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and I now live in Kauai, Hawaii.

Earlier in life I was not satisfied with the prescribed way life is lived in this world and so I was looking for something more. When I started studying the Desteni Principles my life changed forever, as with Desteni I found practical tools to give myself a purpose I can stand by no matter what: to participate in creating a Self, a World, an Existence where we are all Free and Equal as Life and no abuse exists.

That may sound like a daunting or impossible goal but it starts with bringing everything back to Self: If I can make my own mind and being a place where I always consider what is best for all and support others to do the same: then I am living my Utmost Potential in this life and I become a Piece of the Peace that Humanity will eventually become.

Enjoy as I share insights, Desteni life hacks, personal stories and more.
